Selling new, used, and collectible titles, both in-store and online, DDR Books now boasts an inventory of more than 45,000 volumes. All of his life, Donus (the Roman for the Greek 'Adonis') read and accumulated books. In the early 1980s, he decided to collect a few authors in first edition. In the early 1990s, he decided to work toward his own Internet bookstore, which came to pass in 2001 and added a physical store in 2005. Most of the books for sale are published in the last 100 years, a circumstance of cost and of living in South Dakota, where antique books are not frequently available.

History

Established in 1997.

DDR Books was started by Donus D. Roberts, who decided his initials were the best company name he could devise. All his life, Donus (the Roman for the Greek Adonis) has read and accumulated books. In the early 1980s, Donus decided to collect some authors in first edition volumes, then signed first editions. By the early 1990s, the goal was to sell books online, which came to pass in 1999. Books are very important to the Roberts family, who own the store together. Donus and his wife, Lovila, are retired high-school English teachers, and daughter Robyn is a high-school English teacher. As a family business, DDR Books is committed to quality books, both in content and condition, and now boasts a collection 45,000 volumes strong and ready to browse! We hope you will return to DDR Books's store and website for years to come.
